Prophet Miracle Paul sues journalist Zigo for $100K over ‘Fake Prophet’ claim – Renowned religious leader Prophet Miracle Paul has found himself at the center of a controversy sparked by comments made by journalist and social media personality Zigo in a TikTok video.
In the video, Zigo allegedly called Prophet Miracle Paul “not a true prophet,” statements that have raised significant concerns about the prophet’s reputation among his followers.

In response to these allegations, Prophet Miracle Paul, through his legal team at L.T. Muringani Law Practice, expressed the necessity for immediate action in a statement seen by Afrogazette.
Initially, the team demanded that Zigo retract the statements, issue a public apology, and pay $100,000 in damages.
However, after Zigo declined to meet these demands, the matter escalated to legal proceedings.
In a formal legal letter dated May 23, 2024, the prophet’s lawyers described Zigo’s remarks as “false, defamatory, and an unfair @tt@ck.”
They argued that the comments were not only damaging to the prophet’s public image but appeared to be motivated by Zigo’s desire for increased social media engagement and potential monetization, thereby harming Prophet Miracle Paul’s credibility for personal gains.
Prophet Miracle Paul, known for his philanthropic efforts and strong relationships within the media and religious communities, believes that the allegations have unjustly tarnished his character and hindered his mission.
His legal team set a 24-hour ultimatum for Zigo to take down the video and provide a formal apology on his TikTok page.
Should Zigo fail to comply with these requests, the prophet’s lawyers warned of a defamation lawsuit seeking $100,000 in damages.
Additionally, they indicated they might report the video to TikTok and involve law enforcement, citing concerns over “abuse of cyberspace.”
